LO-IV-009M Abel is the irregular shape in the center of the field. Several of the other craters visible in this field have been given IAU lettered designations for their proximity to Abel.
Images
LPOD Photo Gallery Lunar Orbiter Images Apollo Images
- Abel and the curious arc-shaped remains of a small crater (on the northeastern part of Abel's dark floor) are also noticeable on several of Apollo 15's south-looking oblique Fairchild mapping/metric camera photographs, such as AS15-M-2507. In this frame, Abel is depicted very near the curved horizon (the central part of it).

Nomenclature
- Named for Niels Henrik Abel (August 5, 1802–April 6, 1829), a Norwegian mathematician. Abel's first notable work was a proof of the impossibility of solving the quintic equation by radicals.
- Not to be confused with Abell (George Ogden Abell; American astronomer, 1927-1983).
- Name originally given by Franz, but not included in Blagg and Müller's Named Lunar Formations so not considered official IAU nomenclature until Whitaker and Arthur included it in the Rectified Lunar Atlas (Whitaker, p. 225).
